Molecules containing bis (heteroaryl) maleimide backbones and their use in inhibiting DDE / DDD enzymes

摘要

The invention concerns molecules with a bis-(heteroaryl)maleimide structure and having inhibiting characteristics with respect to enzymes with a catalytic pocket comprising the invariant amino acids D, D and E or D, D and D, such as transposases, RAG recombinases or retroviral integrases. The invention also concerns the use of said molecules for in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo inhibition of transposases, RAG recombinases and retroviral integrases such as HIV integrase, as well as the use of said molecules in the treatment of diseases associated with these enzymes in an animal or human host, in particular in the treatment of AIDS.
